I'm going to go think out of the box here and support Option #1. The close-up of the Ubiquibot makes him (it?) seem smiling, friendly and helpful. The other two, while they are "full headshots," (supposedly a good design choice) make Ubiquibot look like a cold, balding nerd. No offense to any cold, balding nerds out there. :)</p> Hmm … I'm going to go think out of the box here and support Option #1.
